Mudbrick Vineyard
is one of my favorite wineries in
New Zealand
- and with some cause. The wines, as you might expect, are excellent - I've always enjoyed the
Mudbrick Vineyard
Syrah - especially when they have a Reserve Syrah on offer.
Mudbrick Vineyard
is beautifully set and, from the hill behind the restaurant, affords views of
Auckland
, the Coromandel and Northland. Naturally enough, I recommend taking lunch at the fine restaurant.
